Writing Day

Writing Situation

Most teens do not wish to be supervised or watched over by their parents as they shop and hang out with their friends at the mall. However, many shop owners in malls are complaining of disorderly and disruptive teens being loud and bothering shoppers. Mall owners say teens hang
out in large groups and get into trouble. Many malls now require teens to be with an adult while they are there.
Do you agree or disagree with having to take your parents with you to the mall? What is your opinion on this issue?

Directions for Writing

Write a letter to the mall owners explaining you opinion on the issue. Be sure to convince the mall owners of your opinion by including specific details to support your position.
